Marco Annau & Urban Native

"Urban-Native" is the band collective around Viennese composer and pianist MarcoAnnau.Bulgarian throat singing meets synthesizers, meet home organ- basses, meet minimalist pop drumming and weighs in 13-eighth note.Originally, Annau started his musical career with film and media music, anchoring his signature through "World Music" as composer and musical border crosser. His works for the "Özlem Bulut Band" were among the top 20 of the "European World MusicCharts".

"A contemporary tribute to the great jazz and pop albums of the 1970s, which showed me the path into a career as a musician. The joy of experimentation, stylistic curiosity and the gesture of musical embrace. " (M.Annau)

Urban Native is not a time machine, but a vehicle to find alternative exits that an album from 1973 would not have taken. Since all six pieces oscillate between the two positions of the "urban instinct" and the "impulses of progressive Jazz and Pop", Annau speaks of a concept album.
